PANEL COMPRESSION SYSTEM FOR BALER IMPLEMENT - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18295347 titled 'PANEL COMPRESSION SYSTEM FOR BALER IMPLEMENT

The abstract describes a baler implement with an upper compression panel, a first side compression panel, a compression frame, a panel support structure, and an actuator to move the compression panels in different directions.

The baler implement includes an upper compression panel and a first side compression panel.
A compression frame surrounds the upper and side compression panels.
A panel support structure has a top portion near the upper compression panel and a side portion near the side compression panel.
An actuator connects the compression frame and the panel support structure to move the panels vertically and horizontally.
A wedging system converts vertical movement of the side portion into horizontal movement of the side compression panel.

Potential Applications: - Agriculture: Used in baling hay or straw for storage or transport. - Recycling: Compacting recyclable materials for easier handling and transportation.

Problems Solved: - Efficient compression of materials for storage or transport. - Precise control over compression direction and force.

Original Abstract Submitted

A baler implement includes an upper compression panel and a first side compression panel. A compression frame is disposed around the upper compression panel and the first side compression panel. A panel support structure includes a top portion positioned proximate the upper compression panel, and a first side portion attached to the top portion and positioned proximate the left side compression panel. An actuator interconnects the compression frame and the panel support structure. The actuator is operable to extend to move the panel support structure and the upper compression panel in a first vertical direction along a first compression axis. A first wedging system includes a wedge for converting movement of the first side portion in the first vertical direction along the first compression axis into movement of the first side compression panel in a first horizontal direction along a second compression axis.
